1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Metaplastic mammary carcinoma with osteoclast-like giant cells is a rare neoplasm, and the histogenesis of this tumor remains controversial. A case of metaplastic mammary carcinoma with osteoclast-like giant cells in a 72-year-old woman is reported with p53 mutational analysis. Microscopically, the tumor was composed of a dominant sarcomatous stromal component containing osteoclast-like giant cells and a minor component of intraductal carcinoma. Immunostaining for p53 revealed strong positivity in both intraductal and sarcomatous components, but not in osteoclast-like giant cells. Mutational analysis of the p53 gene disclosed an identical point mutation in both intraductal and sarcomatous components, but not in osteoclast-like giant cells, indicating that both components share the same progenitor cells, and osteoclast-like giant cells represent a reactive infiltrate.
